Trade, i however, was so small that the mar- : ket sagged of its own weight, prices ; having no resiliency. Although the vis-; ible supply showed a god decrease, the

market continued weak. Scattered setting was evident on every little rally. Ixcals were moderate seller of corn today and there was some hedging by receiving houses. Trade was very limited and prices generally followed wheat Receipts large at 750 cars. Country offerings to arrive light.

If the con-! vention marks time, puts through a few innocuous resolutions, and fails to deal constructively with the issues confronting the farmer today, its action will be accepted as proof of the charge that the Farm Bureau is merely an expensive luxury. "Corn acreage reduction and co-operative marketing are the two big issues before the convention, although there are a number of other matters of hardly less importance that demand consideration. The course of action that the convention lays out for the federation on these issues will show whether the faith of its members and its friends in the ultimate worth of the Farm Bureau is to be justified."

"Many farmers are stocking up with brood sows, due to the present profitableness of swine, and indications point towards a large crop of pigs on next fall's market," Professor Coffey said. "This," he continued, "will result in the usual fall of prices, due to a flooded market."

Farm Sale Calendar

Another well-known Holsfein herd

of this county is that of Ed Paul of

er the manage-

John Rupp. Mr.

Paul supplies the Claypool hotel in In

dianapolis with milk and cream, the whole output of the herd being engaged. This herd is headed by a sire related to Bella Pontiac, who heads the list of butter-fat producers, not only in Holsteins, but in all breeds. Jersey Aristocracy Wayne county has two Jersey breeders at least who have stock related to one of the five highest cows in that breed Sophie 19th of Hood. One Is A. H. Pyle of the Middleboro pike, one of whose cows is distantly related, while H. D. Rose of Williamsburg has based his herd largely on Sophie 19th lines. Guernseys are the only other dairy breed well represented in the county, W. B. Strong of Fountain City and D. R. Funk of Richmond both being engaged in the foundation of herds at present. Mr. Strong recently purchased a bull of May Rose breeding, which is the same line as several of the cows

! named as the highest fix? from the

Perry Crane farm at Lebanon, Ind. According to Prof. Y'app s report, the Holsteins stand highest in fat production with an average for the five highest of 1,183.11 pounds in a year. The list is as follows: Bella Pontiac, Thomas Barron of 'Ontario, 1,259

production of 1.103.2S pounds; Murne Cowan, belonging to C. C. Barber of Barberton, Ohio, 1,098.18 pounds; May Rilma, F. P. Crozier, Upland, Pa., 1,073.41 pounds; Nella Jay 4th, I. W. Roberts, Philadelphia, 1,019.25, and Dangwater Nancy, A. T. Hard, New Hope, Pa., 1,1011.15. Jerseys are third in rank with an average, for the five, of 1,023.44 pounds of butterfat in a year. The five cows are: Plain Mary, Ayrdale Stock Farm, Bangor, Me., 1.040; Vive La France, Pickard Bros., Marion, Ore., 1.039.29; Lady Silken Glow, same place, 1,038.7;

Sophies Agnes, Ayrdale Stock Farm,

1.000 pounds, and Sophie 19th of Hood, C. H. Hood of Lowell, Mass., 999.1 pounds. Ayrshires stand lowest with an average for the five highest of 903.21 pounds of butterfat in a year. They are second in whole milk production, however, the Holsteins having an average of 29.035 pounds; the Ayrshires, 22,801.6; the Guernseys, third with 20,360.1, and Jerseys lowest with a production for the five cows averaging 15,847 pounds. Commenting on the records, Prof. Yapp called attention to the fact that

! three of the groups averaged more

than 1,000 pounds of butter fat production in a year, while 10 or 12 years ago a thousand pound cow was unheard of. All but one of these cows listed as the world champions, are from the United States, the exception being from Canada.

$1.824,0t0.000.

Combining these figures with the amount spent for commercial fertilizer, makes a grand total of $2,052,000,000.

A reel is mounted lengthwise on the feedbox to prevent roosting. Made For 50 Such a feeder will accommodate 50 birds; for 100 birds, a four-foot feeder

should be made.
